Template:Sideicon Longwythe Rest Area is an outpost in the Longwythe area of Leide in Lucis in Final Fantasy XV. It has a motel, Crow's Nest Diner, shops, a rent-a-bird and a petrol station. It is in the vicinity of Longwythe Peak, a peculiarly shaped crag, which Prompto sometimes offers to photograph when the player drives past it.
Story
After Cindy Aurum repairs the party's car, she asks them to deliver something to Longwythe Rest Area. The party complies, and while at the outpost meet Umbra delivering Lunafreya's notebook to Noctis. He reads the message and writes his own in return, and sends Umbra on his way. Noctis's friends wonder how Umbra always finds them no matter where they are, and of what Noctis and Lunafreya correspond about, but he doesn't say.
Noctis and Prompto have a chance to talk by the the motel sign when they stay at the outpost, where Prompto reveals his insecurities of being part of the former's retinue.
After mysterious earthquakes begin to plague the area, Longwythe's Peak is revealed to be the sleeping adamantoise about to awaken. The friends Noctis has made on the Lucian outlands congregate at the Crow's Nest Diner at Longwythe Rest Area to support him in taking on the monster.
After the long night falls the outpost is abandoned. Noctis and Talcott Hester drive through the dark outpost ten years later while on their way to Hammerhead.

Poster
Crow's Nest is a fast food restaurant chain in Lucis. Its diner at Longwythe serves the same menu as the other diners (the Original Crow's Nest in Old Lestallum has a special menu item). The manager acts as a tipster for the area, telling the party of local landmarks and procurement points and treasures, as well as offering hunts (see below). The player can play Justice Monsters Five here and listen to the radio.
